Publisher's Synopsis

Few can deny that in the Muslim world religion and law are intimately linked. However, local legal realities mean that Islamic law is often pushed out of the picture by customary law or by state law. This book concentrates on the impact of customary law on Islamic traditions and the potential for conflict between the two.
